Not open for further replies.
I have a 4 month old beardie and a few weeks ago his fecal came back saying that he had numerous amounts of coccidia - he was given an antibiotic "BORGAL" - a sulfa medication, for 7 days. He was eating super well and his poo schedule is very regular, one every day - they look like healthy poops btw and they were fine even before he was on the medication. Its been about 2-3 weeks since hes been OFF the medication, and this whole week he hasnt been eating like he regularly does, he eats around 40-60 crickets/worms a day USUALLY & always has a salad in his tank (collard greens/carrots) he wasnt really eating his regular worms so i went and bought some hornworms/butterworms/waxworms to entice him - hes eaten about 10 butterworms and no crickets or mealworms!!! I will say he did just shed his extremities (legs+arms) maybe thats the reason why? I dont know if its because of the possible parasites he has or him just getting ready to shed another part of his body? I dont know - help!! also gonna add that hes been spending a lot of time in his hide lately- its on the cold side of the tank :( whats wrong

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
